Waterco Dominates Pool and Spa Industry Awards with 22 Gold Medals.

Innovation, Sustainability, and Service Capture the Industry's Attention

Waterco - the largest Australian-owned and operated entity in the Water industry - further strengthened its technological and sustainability credentials by taking home 22 GOLD medals at the 2024 SPASA Awards of Excellence. The award-winners included LiqTech, the ceramic membrane filtration solution; the eco-friendly EnviroPro Dual Filtration System; Waterco South Australia's sales team; and Swimart Frenchs Forest of which Waterco is the franchisor.

The coveted SPASA Awards, hosted by the Swimming Pool and Spa Association this year coincided with the bi-annual SPLASH! Pool and Spa Trade Show attracts hundreds of submissions from every region across multiple categories.

Waterco Chief Operating Officer Bryan Goh says the company is thrilled with the high number of GOLD awards as it cements its reputation for designing, manufacturing, and distributing resource-efficient products to businesses operating in the multi-billion-dollar Water industry.

"From residential pool owners and small businesses to commercial aquatic centres and industrial water treatment plants, Waterco's filtration, sanitisation, and heating innovations help save time, water and energy," he explains. "Industry acknowledgement of LiqTech, EnviroPro, the high-calibre sales team in South Australia, and Swimart Frenchs Forest franchisee partner demonstrates our company-wide commitment to providing premium products and service."

LiqTech - the turnkey solution for water purification applications

Waterco Commercial and Water Treatment Sales Manager Andy Gale says LiqTech, the swimming pool water filtration system Waterco exclusively distributes throughout Australia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, and the Pacific Islands, is the perfect recipient for SPASA's Product of the Year and Innovative Product Gold and National awards.

"There has not been a product in recent memory that has been more deserving," he says. "LiqTech features advanced silicon carbide filtration, offering superior water clarity, energy efficiency and durability - all while being compact and easy to use. This makes it a unique solution for pool and spa management, addressing both sustainability and user convenience. Recognised by an independent industry panel, LiqTech's product stands out for its exceptional performance, reliability, and alignment with SPASA's values of innovation and quality."

One of the standout features of silicon carbide filtration is its ability to achieve absolute filtration, ensuring the removal of particles of a specified size. "This precision sets it apart from traditional filters that may offer only nominal filtration, leaving room for smaller particles to pass through," Gale explains. "The implications for water quality in industrial, commercial, and residential settings are significant, promising cleaner and safer water."

Gales believes independent industry recognition for this revolutionary system means validation from experts who acknowledge its innovation, quality, and superior performance.

"It signifies that LiqTech meets and exceeds industry standards, providing real value and credibility," he explains. "This endorsement from an independent panel helps build trust, enhances market acceptance, and solidifies its position as a leading product in aquatic filtration.
